Put it in your calendar WHĀNAU 📅🔥
Pull up, bring your people, get amongst the hīkoi ✊🏽
We move as one.

We’ve seen what m**h can do to our people
the hurt, the loss, the disconnection… and it’s still happening.

But we’ve also seen the strength of our whānau.
Together, we rise. Together, we heal.

M**h is not our story.
WHĀNAU IS. 🖤🤍❤️
